How can I calculate sum of column value in linq to sql query?

Question

I'm write this query:

var query2 = (from p in behzad.Compare_closed_numbers_in_CRM_and_Billing_system_detail_counters
               where p.fileid == point.id
               select new
               {
                   p.count
               }).ToArray();

in count column have any value,and I want to sum all of the count value. For example:

Answer 1

If count field is int try this:

int sum = behzad.Compare_closed_numbers_in_CRM_and_Billing_system_detail_counters
     .Where(t=>t.fileid == point.id)
     .Select(t => t.Count ?? 0).Sum();

If count field is nvarchar(max) try this:

int sum = behzad.Compare_closed_numbers_in_CRM_and_Billing_system_detail_counters
         .Where(t=>t.fileid == point.id)
         .Select(t => Convert.ToInt32(t.Count)).Sum();
